PCOS Diagnosis: What Tests and Evaluations You Need

Getting a PCOS diagnosis shouldn’t feel confusing. At Be. Women’s Health in Frisco, TX, we follow a clear, compassionate, evidence-based approach to help you understand exactly what’s happening in your body.

The PCOS evaluation typically includes:

1. A detailed symptom review
Your cycles, weight changes, acne, hair changes, energy, and fertility patterns all offer important clues.

2. Hormone labs
We often check:

• Testosterone and other androgens

• LH and FSH

• Thyroid hormones

• Prolactin

• Estradiol

• Glucose and insulin levels

This helps us understand whether your symptoms are due to PCOS or another hormonal condition.

3. Pelvic ultrasound
We look at ovarian size and follicle patterns. Contrary to the name, not all women with PCOS have cysts — and that’s okay. Diagnosis is based on symptoms + labs + ovulation patterns.

4. Rule-outs
We ensure nothing else (like thyroid disorders or elevated prolactin) is mimicking PCOS.

A diagnosis is never the end — it’s the beginning of a personalized plan.
Our goal is clarity, not confusion.
